Recaptcha does not work for this, because it needs to give a fast response to the user. Recaptcha is useful for batch processes and to generate data that refines their statistical models, but not for real-time OCR.

The photos in recaptcha are mostly street names and numbers from Google StreetView. Very elegant combination of two ambitious projects.
